A method includes receiving, by an armed monitoring system of a property and from a user, a disarm code, comparing the received disarm code to a stored disarm code, determining that the received disarm code matches the stored disarm code, determining a property access pattern that corresponds to the stored disarm code, that identifies a first door group of one or more doors inside the property that should be locked, and that identifies a second door group of one or more doors inside the property that should be unlocked, providing, to the first door group, a first instruction to lock, providing, to the second door group, a second instruction to unlock, and based on providing, to the first door group, the first instruction to lock and providing, to the second door group, the second instruction to unlock, disarming the monitoring system.

An information processing apparatus includes a processor and a memory. The memory is in communication with the processor, where the memory stores computer-readable instructions that are executed by the processor. The processor performs operations including storing, in association with each other, vehicle position information with which a vehicle is identified, and parcel receipt information with which the vehicle is specified instead of an address or a name. The operations further include specifying the vehicle based on the parcel receipt information. The operations further include acquiring authentication information with which the vehicle is unlocked. The operations further include sending the authentication information to a device.

A smart thermostat hub and a management platform for controlling and securing smart devices in a multi-family residential property are disclosed. Smart thermostat hubs may bi-directionally communicate with the management platform using a LoRaWAN communication link and communicate with smart devices present within an apartment of the multi-family residential property via a non-LoRaWAN communication link. Smart thermostat hub may provide a gateway or bridge between the management platform and an offline door lock, thereby enabling access credentials for an offline door lock to be disabled from the management platform, and may serve to facilitate remote configuration of other smart devices, such as thermostats and smart light fixtures, for example.

Improved methods, systems, apparatuses, and components for secure storage of products, including an improved secure storage container and system. The secure storage container may provide a user with secure, organized, and substantially airtight storage of products. The secure storage system may allow for the authentication of the user to lock/unlock the secure storage container. The secure storage system may further collect data obtained from sensors. The data may include, but is not limited to, lock/unlocking event information, weight changes of the stored substances, movement of the substances within the box, temperature sensor data, humidity sensor data. The secure storage system may provide for actively maintaining a particular humidity or temperature point using a control system.

A set-top box with enhanced behavioral controls and system and method for use of the same are disclosed. In one embodiment of the set-top box, a wireless transceiver is located within a housing, which also interconnectedly includes a television input, a television output, a processor, and memory. The set-top box may pair with an electronic door locking apparatus coupled to a door that is room-collocated with the set-top box in a hospitality establishment. The set-top box may then receive a status signal from the electronic door locking apparatus relative to the open/closed status of the door and locked/unlocked status of the door.

A method for transmitting in a passive activation system in a motor vehicle. Between each use-case module and a protocol driver an intermediate management layer is inserted that receives requests from the modules and stores them in a list according to oldness and priority ranking, selects a main request with the highest priority ranking, selects requests compatible with the main request, sends at least one grouped signal corresponding to the main and compatible requests to a portable activation device, receives back from the activation device at least one signal transmitted to the intermediate layer allowing the activation device to be located and then the location thereof to be sent to the case modules that sent the main request or a compatible request, and deletes the main and compatible requests from the list.
